Answer to Question 1

ANS: Dramatic increases in the incidence of diseases, such as diabetes, heart disease, obesity, hypertension. The rise of bacterial/parasitic diseases; environmental degradation from drilling; overcrowding in urban areas

Answer to Question 2

ANS: Some have even suggested that economic progress (as defined by rising wages, increased GNP, and so on) actually has lowered the quality of life for many non-Western people. Despite the best intentions of international development agencies, multimillion- dollar foreign aid projects have often resulted in greater poverty, longer working hours, overpopulation, poorer health, more social pathology, and environmental degradation (Bodley 2007, 2008).
